looks alright but not 400£ worth, someone compare crysis benchmark with 480 with same rig if u can

edit : were did u found these benchmarks source ?

Maybe £350 would be OK.
The 6870 has more Tessellation horsepower than a GTX 480???

I guess the important bit now is, what die size did they need to accomplish it.

Edit:
Early reports from Charlie indicated very slightly bigger than GF104 (about 380mm2) but he wasn't absolutely certain on that.

If that is true, then Nv is in HUGE trouble now...

If these are real they look ok as unigine is set to extreme tessellation something which cripples 5850's and 5870's

I wonder what a stock & overclocked 480 with latest drivers get's at that res in comparison?

Spazzfish · 29 Aug 2010 at 13:07

This needs some point of comparison. What are these like compared to stock 480?

xtremedetailz · 29 Aug 2010 at 14:37

come on guys crank them GTX480's up

Mr Krugga · 29 Aug 2010 at 15:00

If these results are legit, I'm most likely sold to them ATI 6000 release. Can't wait tbh.

Stock 5870 averages 36 fps @ 1900x1200 no AA in crysis bench. 32 fps with 8 x AA.

cant give a direct comparison unfortunately, they have a much faster cpu than me ( i7 [email protected] vs [email protected]) but i'm only running at 1680x1050 vs their 1920x1200 but anyway i get 37.5fps on unigine with gtx 480@ 800/2000, using same settings apart from resolution

RavenXXX2 · 29 Aug 2010 at 15:10

I still see no links to the benchmarks, any reason why?

Where does it say 4.2ghz 920? Only reference to CPU I can see is 930 at 2.8ghz though I'm on my phone so I'm probably missing something.

Edit, just seen it in the Heaven shot, ignore.

Tried the same settings on my 5870 and needless to say it gets murdered. Averaged about 10FPS and I stopped it halfway through. It's not liking the extreme Tessellation settings.

regulus · 29 Aug 2010 at 15:18

I'll certainly be interested in these cards but only once they're at the same pricing levels as the 5870.

4 generations later it can finally play crisis max out smoothly (sort of).

LOL, and Just in time to to struggle with Crysis 2.

Its a bit sad really.

RavenXXX2 · 29 Aug 2010 at 15:23

@ steve258 43 av 29 min fps in the fly through means a lot less in actual gameplay. Crysis needs top dual cards to run smooth at max settings.
